The Change Foundation awards Northumberland Community Partnership $3-million project to improve seniors' healthcare transitions and use patient input to drive redesign
Groundbreaking approach holds promise for provincial game-change
After a rigorous, year-long selection process, The Change Foundation today announced the Northumberland Community Partnership as the winner of its $3-million investment in a trail-blazing project: PATH - Partners Advancing Transitions in Healthcare (PATH): a first with Ontario patients.
The Northumberland Community Partnership unites 12 health and social care organizations with patients and caregivers who will identify healthcare transition problems across Central East Ontario and work with a full range of service providers to redesign care and improve experiences. The Northumberland PATH, led by Northumberland Hills Hospital, is the first system-wide patient/caregiver/provider co-design venture of its kind in Ontario.
